“Mmmm… Tastes almost as good as Justin sounds”
There’s an obvious metaphor here about how you and I will bring out the best in each other— just like bacon & chocolate—but it’s super lame and you deserve better.
For now, enjoy this maniacal-yet-delicious recipe, and when you’re done, we can talk about why I’d be fun to have on your show.
*Wink*
Ingredients
- 2 whole-grain graham cracker sheets
- 4 miniature dark chocolate bars (such as Hershey’s)
- 4 large toasted marshmallows
- 2 slices cooked center-cut bacon
How to Make It
Break each whole-grain graham cracker sheet in half. Top each cracker half with 1 miniature chocolate bar. Microwave at HIGH 35 seconds or until chocolate is slightly melted; spread. Top chocolate with 1 toasted marshmallow and 1/2 slice cooked bacon.
